During the Britpop boom of the mid-90s, the astonishing success of Oasis brought Creation fame on the world stage. In 1999, however, McGee announced his shock departure as his label's influence over a generation of British music came to a confusing and disappointing end. Containing interviews with Creation musicians, employees, supporters and detractors, this is the inside story of Creation Records - and of British music since the 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Cavanagh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Faber \u0026amp; Faber\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/20\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 752\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.00w x 1.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780571362530","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":42786476097651,"sku":"9.78057E+12","price":31.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_f3db54a9-f227-41b8-82d6-281215b8513f.jpg?v=1737466802","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/the-creation-records-story-my-magpie-eyes-are-hungry-for-the-prize-9780571362530","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
